Modernization theory - and the non-western world

Authors: Zapf, Wolfgang;

Modernization theory - and the non-western world

Abstract

"In this paper I want to deal with three topics: first, with the development and the ups and downs of modernization theory and its treatment of the non-Western world (I), secondly, with some basic social structure distributions and trends of human development for selected societies, including Islamic countries (II), thirdly, with modernization and modernity in the non-Western world, especially in the Arab world (III). This third part is based only on my reading of some works by area specialists and specialists on Islam therefore, it barely represents more than the average layperson's current level of information today in Western Europe." (author's abstract) Der Verfasser setzt sich mit drei Themenstellungen auseinander: (1) mit der Entwicklung und dem Auf und Ab der Modernisierungstheorie außerhalb der westlichen Welt, (2) mit grundlegenden Aspekten der Sozialstruktur und der Entwicklung ausgewählter Gesellschaften einschließlich islamischer Länder und (3) mit Modernisierung und Moderne außerhalb der westlichen Welt, vor allem in den arabischen Ländern. Der dritte Teil basiert auf einer Lektüre der einschlägigen Fachliteratur und erhebt nicht den Anspruch, über das Informationsniveau des interessierten westeuropäischen Laien hinauszugehen.
